In the aftermath of violence at a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, progressive activists nationwide have demanded, and in some cases illegally carried out, the tearing down and removal of statues and monuments to Confederate leaders and soldiers on public space. Now Black Lives Matter activists have gone even further — going so far as to call for a ban on all Confederate imagery — even in private possession!

“The fact that the Confederate flag & statues permeate the south is evidence that white supremacy was never overthrown in the United States” the @BLMChi account tweeted three minutes later.

Outlawing all Confederate flags, symbols, statues, and groups would not only be indescribably impractical — taking into account the existence of battlefield monuments, graves, Civil War re-enactors, every single souvenir shop within a 10-mile radius of Gettysburg, historical computer games, and Lynyrd Skynyrd albums, Alabama albums, Dukes of Hazzard memorabilia — it would all be illegal.

“Even the most liberal Supreme Court justice knows that the remedy to hateful or offensive speech is opposing views [free speech],” Eddie Zipperer, an assistant professor of political science at Georgia Military College, told LifeZette. “This would be a blatant violation of the First Amendment.”

“Leftists always haul out the argument that you can’t yell ‘fire’ in a crowded theater, so free speech has limits,” he said. “But that argument is nonsensical. Historically, the Supreme Court goes to any length to protect political speech — even wildly unpopular speech.”

Zipperer provided as an example the decision in the 2011 case Snyder v. Phelps, in which the court ruled 8-1 to “protect the absolutely horrible, hateful speech of the Westboro Baptist Church during a protest of a dead soldier’s funeral.”

“That case was decided by all the same justices we have now, except Scalia was on the court instead of Gorsuch,” he noted. “The Supreme Court has allowed almost no limitation on political speech, and there’s no reason to think that should change.”

Similar rhetoric pointing a finger of wrong at any and all Confederate memorabilia came from at least one lawmaker.

“Confederate memorabilia have no place in this country and especially not in the United States Capitol,” said Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.) in a statement to The Hill.

The entire Congressional Black Caucus called on Wednesday for the removal of all Confederate-related statues in the nation’s Capitol.

“The Congressional Black Caucus and the Black Lives Matter movement ignore the reality that the central figures in Confederacy, from Robert E. Lee to Jefferson Davis, were also central figures in American political life,” said Dr. Lee Cheek, Dean of Social Sciences at East Georgia State College and a Senior Fellow of the Alexander Hamilton Institute in New York.

Left Shows Hypocrisy with Selective Monument Rage. Confederate statues targeted as symbols of hate while tributes to mass-murdering communists ignored, celebratedThe particular assault on statues of Gen. Robert E. Lee showcases the degree to which emotion has overridden important historical context.

“Most of the more important figures were the children of heroes or veterans of the American Revolution,” Cheek continued. “For example, CSA Brig. Gen. and Secretary of War George W. Randolph was the grandson of Thomas Jefferson. Lt. Gen. Richard Taylor, CSA, was the son of General and President Zachary Taylor and the grandson of a Revolutionary War officer.”

“As the great American historian Dr. Clyde Wilson has noted, there are hundreds and hundreds of these historical connections; in other words, this is an American story as well as a Civil War story that should be shared with the rising generation in its fullness,” he said.

“The greatest threat to Congressional Black Caucus’ new ‘cultural revolution,’ inspired by an illiberal and anti-democratic worldview, is an environment in which free and uninhibited discussion and disagreement can take place,” Cheek continued.

“In fact, diversity of thought is the opposite of their desires, but is at the heart of a free society. The proponents of historical cleansing are on the ascendency, and the authentic study of the American South is the victim,” he said.

The particular assault on statues of Gen. Robert E. Lee showcases the degree to which emotion has overridden important historical context.

Robert E. Lee, that alleged symbol of white supremacy and racism, believed that the entire war — the Confederate defeat and the personal loss of his Arlington property and family fortune — was worth it to see slavery ended.

“I am rejoiced that slavery is abolished,” said Lee in 1870. “I believe it will be greatly for the interests of the South. So fully am I satisfied of this, as regards Virginia especially, that I would cheerfully have lost all I have lost by the war, and have suffered all I have suffered, to have this object attained.”

Listening to NPR this morning confirmed what I already knew. Charlottesville is being turned into another nail in President Trump’s coffin.

NPR had no interest whatsoever in reporting anything close to the actual facts about what had occurred in Charlottesville. The several “interviews” with the like-minded were orchestrated to produce the desired propaganda result: It was all Trump’s fault.

NPR said it was Trump’s fault for many reasons.

He had stirred up White Supremacists and Nazis by appealing during the presidential election campaign to their supremacist views with his slogan “America first.”

Of course, what Trump means by “America first,” is precisely what the voters understood him to mean—the interest of the broad American public should come before trade deals that serve the interests of other countries and the narrow profit interests of global corporations. However, the NPR propagandists put words in Trump’s mouth and twisted the meaning of the slogan to be “White America Comes First.”

In other words, “America first” according to NPR is code language to white supremacists to take advantage of the electoral college and elect a leader over the popular vote of the heavy population densities in the narrow geographical areas that comprise the northeast and west coasts, the centers of moral rot. Thus, Trump was the candidate of white supremacists and, thereby, illegitimate.

NPR next conveyed the message that Trump proved he was the Nazis’ candidate when he criticized both sides for the trouble in Charlottesville. NPR used its orchestrated interviews to place all blame for violence on the one group that had a legal permit for their rally. According to NPR, the group that had no permit and formed in order to protest the rally consisted entirely of white hats defending America from free speech from alleged Nazis and racists.

There is no doubt that a rally of what is called the “alt-right” will pull into itself all sorts of extremists and that the cause of the rally, apparently defending a statue of Robert E. Lee from demolition or perhaps simply gaining attention for the organizers, was done harm by the young, apparently unbalanced, man who drove a car into counter-marchers, after the permitted rally had ended. The nonsensical element of this act has convinced some Americans that the entire scene was an orchestration by the deep state as a weapon against Trump and civil liberty.

Charlottesville has many aspects that are ignored by NPR and the rest of the presstitutes.

For example, how does the Bush/Cheney/Obama/neoconservative assertion that Americans are the “exceptional people” whose country is the “indispensable country” differ from Trump’s proclamation of “America first”? No one among the liberal/progressive/left was disturbed when Obama proclaimed to the world that Americans are the exceptional, indispensable people. Doesn’t Obama use much clearer language that puts America first? If Americans are exceptional, everyone else is unexceptional. If Americans are indispensable, everyone else is dispensable.

What is the difference?

One difference is that Obama was elected by the good people, the non-racist, non-misogynist, non-white-supremacist people, and Trump was elected by “the deplorables,” to use Hillary’s term. Little wonder she lost, having dismissed everyone between the two coasts as “deplorables.”

But she didn’t lose, right? Putin and Trump conspired to steal the election from her. Trump is illegitimate and therefore must be driven out of office. He is doubly illegitimate because white heterosexual males elected him. This bogus charge despite the fact that Hillary got 2 million less votes from women than did Obama. Either the 2 million women didn’t vote or they voted for Trump.

The other difference is that Trump’s use of “America first” refers to the loss of millions of American middle class jobs and tax base for former manufacturing cities and states, whereas the Bush/Cheney/Obama/neoconservative/neoliberal use of “exceptional, indispensable America” refers to Washington’s right to bomb other peoples into the stone age for not complying with Washington’s orders.

The campaign to drive Trump out of office has been going on 24/7 since Trump confounded the pundits and won the election. For the liberal/progressive/left Trump is the enemy against whom they are conducting war, and as in war, truth is crowded out by propaganda. The liberal/progressive/left gets away with this abuse of news reporting because Trump’s intent to reduce tensions with Russia is seen as threats to the income and power of the military/security complex and the hegemonic ideology of the neoconservatives. Powerful material interests, ideology, and media together comprise a very strong force against which a mere president hasn’t a chance.

Few Americans understand the fundamental transformation of their politics and society since the 1960s when the Civil Rights Act was stood on its head by EEOC compliance chief Alfred W. Bloomrosen. The Civil Rights Act explicitly prohibited racial and gender quotas as methods to combat “discrimination,” which was mainly a product of history rather than of the motivations of white males. But it is difficult to make history a villain, and social engineering benefits from having a villain to overcome. Thus was the foundation of Identity Politics laid.

The initial stage of the new politics was that quotas established privilege for “preferred minorities,” and preference began prevailing over merit.

Over the decades white males have slowly but surely experienced discrimination in university admissions, hiring, promotions, university appointments, and in their ability to exercise free speech. Remember, only a few days ago a senior male engineer at Google was fired because he expressed a truthful fact—men and women have different traits—that is unacceptable to feminists and corporations.

Perhaps somewhere at some time a woman or a black has been fired for saying something unacceptable to a white male, but I know of no such case. Indeed, it is common parlance that white heterosexual males are racists, sexists, and homophobic. This is the accepted language of Identity Politics. Few of us are brave enough to challenge it.

The liberal/progressive/left along with the media has abandoned the working class for Identity Politics. Identity Politics teaches that women, blacks, and homosexuals are all victims of white heterosexual males who are characterized as the victimizer class, that is, those who victimize others. The doctrine delegitimizes white heterosexual males in the same way that Nazi doctrine delegitimizes Jews and communist doctrine delegitimizes capitalists. There is no difference.

Initially, white males, such as the University of Virginia history professor on NPR today who obligingly demonized the white males who do not accept their second class status, survive by mouthing Identity Politics and crawling on their knees. But this is a temporary respite. For Identity Politics the only acceptable white heterosexual males are those who admit their gender and sexual preference guilt and accept their punishment for being the victimizers of women, blacks, and homosexuals.

In 1995 in our book, The New Color Line, How Quotas and Privilege Destroy Democracy, Larry Stratton and I describe how one EEOC bureaucrat by ignoring the statutory language of the Civil Rights Act, legislation the intent of which was to enforce equality before the law, reintroduced legalized discrimination into US law, thus beginning the process of delegitimizing the white male. Today everyone would turn their backs on this fact, not because it is invalid but because it is politically incorrect. When our book was published 22 years ago, the major media endorsed our argument:

“A forceful and convincing case . . . vividly dramatic.” — New York Times Book Review

“There are important lessons to learn . . . not least how good intentions can go badly awry.” — The Wall Street Journal

“Roberts and Stratton make a strong case that the civil rights legislation of the 1960s has been distorted beyond recognition.” — The Washington Post
The consequence of quotas wasn’t obvious at first, and there were claims that the quotas were temporary, but today the consequence is obvious. Heterosexual white males are deplorables.

Today on NPR one male said that the views of white males who defend both themselves and dead white males from attacks should not be allowed a voice in American politics.

The liberal/progressive/left asserts that everyone knows that Robert E. Lee was an evil racist who fought for slavery and everyone who wants to protect his statue is obviously the same. Such people deserve no voice, no vote. They must be excluded from public discussion.

Imagine saying this about any other group, especially women, blacks, and homosexuals. How is it possible for the liberal/progressive/left to really believe that they are oppressed by powerful white male heterosexuals when they can demonize white males at will and prevent any backtalk?

If white males are so powerful, how can they be so easily fired by feminist thought control czars for “expressing harmful gender stereotypes.” Harmful to who? How harmful is getting fired?

As Faith Goldy and Stefan Molyneux predict, white males have had enough of their demonization and the demonization of our country’s heros. They see the writing on the wall and are organizing to defend themselves.

As anti-white male propaganda is apparently the only mental activity of which the liberal/progressive/left is capable, Faith Goldy and Stefan Molyneux are probably correct that America, broken into pieces by Identity Politics, is heading into civil war.

I wonder which side will control the nukes and bio-chemical weapons.

If the white heterosexual males lose, I wonder who will protect the white women. Are they destined for the same rape and butchery as befell German women from the Russians and Americans once the Wehrmacht surrendered?

Of course, this is an impermissible question.

The liberal/progressive/left are incapable of understanding that by demonizing white heterosexual males they are demonizing all whites and, thereby, themselves.

They should go ask the liberal whites in Rhodesia how well they are faring in Zimbabwe under Robert Mugabe. They should ask South African whites how secure they believe themselves to be now that they have turned over power and a second black political party has risen, forcing political competition between black politicians into which black party hates whites the most.

These also are impermissible questions.

Identity Politics always leads to violence, and Americans will not be spared.

Because nothing brings down the murder rate like an Associate of Arts degree.

Free college for people who didn’t bother showing up to high school. Brilliant idea!

And with the degree they get from community college the gang banger thugs can join the Baltimore police force!

Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh announces her crime-fighting initiative last Wednesday: Free community college for all.

Her answer to a homicide rate that is doubled Chicago’s is free community college for Baltimore youth.

Here is what she had to say per WBALTV:

“Community college has become critical in providing the necessary education and training that high school graduates need to pursue a trade or a four-year degree,” Pugh said.

“What we are going to do in Baltimore City is make Baltimore Community College free.”

Earlier this week, ‘Project Baltimore’ asked this question: How can a Baltimore high school with zero students proficient in math (yes that is ZERO, none nada, not one), have one of the highest graduation rates in Baltimore City?

In a stunning interview from one of the masked educators who uncovered this possible great theft of education.. They said, “grade changing. Giving out diplomas to students that did not earn them.”

So, therein lies a major issue of efficiency in the city. An alleged corrupt school system in Baltimore is handing out high school diplomas like candy to students who have zero proficiency in math. Then the expectation is to push these students into free college in the name of stopping homicides. This does not pass the smell test.

Perhaps, the problem is much deeper and it starts with deindustrialization of the city and 50-years of democratic controlled leadership. This has forced a shocking facial wealth divide – 1/3 of black households have zero net worth, proving that democrats are still keeping blacks on the plantation.

Critics see this as a reoccurring scam among democrats: get a huge amount of money shoveled at a program that all but a few token students would actually attend, and embezzle the money elsewhere.

Conclusion:

Baltimore Mayor Pugh needs a lesson in timeframes. Her holistic approach of free college for Baltimore youth will not solve today’s homicide rate that is doubled Chicago’s. We’re sure Baltimore taxpayers will be thrilled.

I am against everything the “alt-right”, Nazis, white supremacists, and KKK stand for.

Like Matt Walsh wrote:

“You call this rally “Unite the Right,” but you are not a member of anything that even resembles the conservative cause I have spent my life fighting for.”

But I against the counter “antifa” groups.

Antifa: Short for (militant) anti-fascists. Ironic because they are also Fascists.

These are middle-class champagne socialist/communist/anarchist white kids who claim to be anti-nationalists or anti-fascists. They consider themselves to be rebelling against the establishment, while upholding all of its ultra left politically correct views with Che Guevera thug-squad inspired violent riots.

Antifa only dislike racism when its carried out by whites, and they either do not have the spine to stand up against anti-white racism, or they do not have the mental capacity to see anti-white racism.

Most are teenagers and university students who grow out of the fad when they actually start paying taxes.

These groups and the associated Black Panthers, BLM, or Louis Farrakhan type groups are no better than the Nazis on the other side. They are two sides of the same coin. They deserve each other. They are each other. I draw no distinction between them. They are both hate groups. They are both born out of the corrupt democrat party that preys on emotions such as anger and victimhood.

The “alt-right” group started from post Civil war democrat party. Their original claim to fame was the lynching of white republicans and blacks. They later made a loose alliance with Nazis and Skinheads.

The Antifa group is a product of the modern democrat party. They do exactly what the rising fascists did to gain control of places like Germany in the 1930’s. Attacking, setting fires, bullying, blocking freedom of speech, blocking websites (same as book burning), blocking streets, and blocking the free expression of other people’s ideas just because they disagree. They want a society of like minded people and everyone else and everything else should be banned. This is what led real patriots to create the United States in the first place.

These types of people ban conservative speakers from universities, create safe spaces where no alternate opinion will be tolerated, and block websites that differ from their view, rewrite and even remove history.

They are the people George Orewell warned us about:

“If you want to keep a secret, you must also hide it from yourself.”

“He who controls the past controls the future. He who controls the present controls the past.”

To shut down other ideologies through intimidation or force IS fascism not anti-fascism. Fascism, Socialism, Communism are all “power to the state” groups. They are all enemies of freedom.

So if I oppose both groups why am I writing more about the Antifa group?

1) I personally don’t know of a single KKK member or white supremacist. And I personally only know one person who claims to be a Nazi/Skinhead. And he voted for Hillary. Strange at first thought, but not really when you think about it.

2) The Nazi type groups have no real political power at this time. They are not a major part of any political platform. The only power they have is to create hysteria among the hysterical left which they are great at doing. But a large portion of democrats identify with Antifa and groups like them. The public school system, most universities, a lot of major corporations, most of Hollywood and about half of the democrat party is made up of these groups.

And just a reminder of what we are dealing with from this hysterical ‘anti-fascists’ fascist group:

And I know plenty of people that align themselves with the Antifa type groups. They may not consciously or openly be a part of this group but they share many of their views. Here is one example from my facebook friend list:

“Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them.” George Orwell

But thankfully there is this by someone called Joe Clark:

Most Americans, most people, already know this sort of stupidity and violence on the march in Charlottesville is unacceptable and a waste of time. The people assembled in Virginia do not represent what most Americans think or wish to do with their precious little free time on a Saturday. The brouhaha from the political media surrounding this event is at best overblown by do-gooders and at worst being purposely stoked for website hits, TV ratings, and political agendas.

Rather than heeding the hollow calls for peace and unity from our leaders or the foolish pleas from left/right activists on the ground in Virginia, what most Americans need to do right now is keep right on doing what they’re already doing – enjoying what little freedom they still have in so many ways too numerous to list completely.

Keep in mind, while a few hundred deluded racists and overly hysterical ‘anti-fascists’ fascists clash in Virginia, thousands of Americans are attending baseball, football, and soccer events while millions watch from home.

They used to say if the kids don’t go to school “how will they get socialized.” What they meant was “how will they learn socialism.”

by Mason Weaver

The United States Justice Department recently announced a review of racial discrimination in college admissions. This launched the expected responses from the race-base industry and a call to continue racial profiling in college admissions.

…The reason black children cannot compete in college entrance is because black students have attended the gang-prepped K-12 inner-city slave camps called public schools.

The same forces screaming to protect their meal ticket in the race-based industry, should be marching in protest of the results of public education in the black community. The problem is with families, and the solution starts with the black man and black woman – not a government program.

Why is the solution to every problem more money? Every solution involves spending, because spending gets you influence, power and enriches your friends. Who benefits financially from spending so much per child? Does the child benefits?

If the most expensive schools are in some of the poorest neighborhoods, but these children are not performing up to anyone’s standards, what does that mean? It does not take more money to fail. As a matter of fact, if we placed half of that money in the child’s bank account, most would have enough for college or to own their own business after graduating or dropping out.

A 2011 analysis of public schools per-student spending showed schools spending the most per student did not produce a better educated student, quite the opposite. According to this research, Camden, New Jersey, spent $23,000 per student per year with less than a 40 percent graduation rate. While Alpine, Utah, spent less than $6,000 per student per year and had a 78 percent graduation rate.

Camden spends $92,000 per student in four years of high school. If we just took the funds from high school and give it to the children at 18, it would do more for society. Instead of giving it to the local teachers’ union, schoolbook monopolies and the local socialist parties, let’s allow little Jimmy to buy an 18-wheeler and start driving for himself. After all, he is now a high-school drop out, and the money has been wasted on him in school. Of course, we all know the real reason: No one cares about the child, just the money.

The $23,000 per student produces the lowest graduation rate. You would need special skills to spend that much money and fail. You can buy a new car every year, per child with that money – yet you still have failure. After high school, that child has a $92,000 education (and that’s just the last four years) and still cannot read, reason or study. Thirty kids is $690,000 per year. What do you think we are getting? Union dues, Democratic voting and a high national debt. The liberals are using these kids; it is really child abuse and a hatred of children.

That is human nature, and I understand it. What I do not understand are the parents. Parents have loyalties to the schools, teachers and administrators, but little toward their children. Some parents don’t consider it “their” tax dollars being spent. They think it is “the government’s” money.

How else can you explain the annual back-to-school march of our children into the slave training camps, called public schools? Public schools are just a farm team for the judicial system, drug treatment systems and the alcohol business. The only groups who benefits from the current public school systems are those groups in business to pick up the shattered pieces of our children’s lives.

It is shameful and harmful to continue the dumbing down and aggressive anti-capitalism, America-hating indoctrination of our children. After they graduate with no skills, we then are expected to grant them entrance into our colleges. May as well – what are they learning in college? More of the same dumbed down, no skills, victimhood instruction they’ve received in public schools.

Public school is child abuse. It only costs $300-500 per child per year to homeschool. But it will never be encouraged until union dues are paid by the parents. But homeschooling works, is easier and creates a strong bond between parents and child or children. You can tell because of all the opposition to homeschooling. Charter schools are better than traditional public schools, if you are measuring student success and not programs. It is still under the government’s control, however, which means there is more focused on serving the system than the parent.

David Betz said, “That’s a good illustration: as you can see two of those scenarios would result in someone’s death in the case of an accident.”

Their point is that while the airline may have meant it as an illustration of same-sex relationships, two buckles are not going to work in case of an incident. Nor will two tabs. Nor will two…

Only a buckle and a tab will work when connected as flight attendants demonstrate to passengers at the beginning of flights.

“Uh. Hello. The seat belt images prove it DOES matter.”

Said Twitchy: “Amsterdam’s Pride Week celebration just wrapped up Sunday, but Royal Dutch Airlines made sure to lend its support with a #PrideAmsterdam tweet that, to a lot of people, seemed pretty clever for about a second and a half until reality set in.”

Said J.G. Petruna, “Nice metaphor: two of those combinations are functionally useless.”

Federalist Musket said, “2/3 of these things can’t, you know, click.”

Tomas Hampsthwaite said: “Lol. Only one of these might save you in crash. Not best analogy for equality.”

Phoenixgirl said, “Seat belts only work one way and it ain’t the first two.”

“What an idiotic advert,” said AndresP-RV. “With airline belts it does indeed matter.”

Another said, “How many of those seatbelt combinations do you permit passengers to use when the fasten seatbelt sign comes on?”

Wrote E.L. Pownd, “An unintended lesson in reality from KLM.”

Just A Fox had to break the news to the airline: “Uh, guys. This gives the opposite message from what you were going for.”

And Rachel Rogers asked: “Please tell me you realize the irony in this?”
